Maybe we should talk about our goals for the Blockathon first. From my POV these
are:
- What's a block?
- What's Cocoon core?
- How to implement real blocks? Consider different alternatives like
Eclipse OSGi implementation, Pier's kernel, etc. talk about the pros and
cons.
- Look at our code base and find ways how to do it
It was my impression too that we were aiming for a full Sunday but I think that
many of us are not too enthusiastic about it because this would mean travelling
on Saturday. So maybe we can find a compromise and start the blockathon on
Sunday evening (e.g. at 6pm) and work on the first two questions.
If we are more than let's say 5 people we should try to get a seminar room in a
hotel so that we have a flip chart and maybe a beamer. (Will anybody stay in a
seminar hotel?)
If we are less than 5 people we don't have to prepare anything and only find a
place (restaurant, pub, ...) where we can talk undisturbed.
WDOT?
